Climbing around Exmouth - Pilgonamen Gorge etc 28-Apr-2014 At 11:55:56 AM duglash

Hi,

About to spend a week at Ningaloo snorkelling, and just discovered that there's climbing there too.

I talked to a friend who'd been there maybe 10 years ago and he remembered enjoying this wall:

Has anyone climbed here more recently? If so how good is the climbing/rock? Are the bolts still OK? Is it worth bringing trad gear, and if so how much - a full rack or just a handful? Does the cliff get any shade this time of year or is it a better winter destination? (average 33 degrees daytime temp for April)

Any suggestions for other cool stuff to see or do appreciated - I've heard of the fig tree cave, and who wouldn't have heard of the troglobitic schizoids.

Thanks very much,
Douglas
